I'll be happy to make any changes the players want, but as mentioned before, quickhost won't work if Marignon hasn't set themselves to AI. I haven't checked on that lately, so they might have.

If Abysia continues its current progress , Marignon wont see another turn, so quickhost is indeed an option, at most within three turns...
(@Abysia: Let me know if you need some aid to finish Marignon off... )

I dont see why 48-48-72 is tricky to set up? All that needs to be changed is disabling the scheduled hosts on Tuesday & Thursday and renabling the scheduled hosting Wednesday again as it once was...

I dont think I can manage a 72h QH: It is true that I can avoid playing on the weekend, but still it means an additional turn per week. I can hardly keep up to do the 4 turns per week with our current schedule. I really like to play this game, but I must also work on my PhD-thesis real hard, and in no way I can afford to play an additional turn per week, sorry! 96QH would be really beneficial to me and my thesis!

Ummm.... 72 would be 2 1/3 turns a week, less than the current 4.

Okay, this math hurts.

You all figure this out, delegate a spokesman, and have them post here what the FINAL, DEFINITIVE, hosting schedule ought to be, and I will MAKE IT SO.

Please make clear when you are posting that you are the SPOKESMAN and that the schedule is FINAL and DEFINITIVE, else I'll ignore the post as merely another entry in the running debate.

Okay, okay, 72QH is fine with me. However we still need to wait until Marignon is defeated. What about our other players? Everbody ok with that schedule change?

@Reverend Zombie: I did not expect you to watch this thread since TienChi was defeated, so sorry if this discussion is annoying you. It might be more convenient for you if we will send you a private message via the Boards messaging facility once we've decided to alter the schedule. Is that ok for you?

As asked :- I like that this is fixed host so would rather stick with that (although it has confused me in the past)

I would not object to QH though if everyone else wants it.

How long are we going to wait for Pickles to return? How do we continue if that time is up?
